What Is The Remedy For Fever With Cold Hands And Feet When On Amoxicillin?
My 15month old boy has high temperature but his hands and feet are cold. His doctor recommended amoxicillin, lonart, paracetamol and vitamin c all of which he has been given about 4 hours ago. He is still having high temperature, shivering and his hands and feet are cold.

Hi,
These are symptoms of an infection and the antibiotics will need a little longer to take effect. In the meantime continue the treatment you have started and ensure he continues to drink plenty. If he shows no improvement in 12 hours, I suggest you take him to the ED to be examined.
